Some of the largest banks in the United States are increasingly using fingerprints, facial scans and other types of biometrics to safeguard accounts. For example, millions of customers at Bank of America, JPMorgan Chase and Wells Fargo routinely use fingerprints to log into their bank accounts through their mobile phones. This feature is enabling a huge share of American banking customers to verify their identities with biometrics. And millions more are expected to get involved in as more mobile phones include fingerprint scans. Other uses of biometrics are also coming online. Wells Fargo lets some customers scan their eyes with their mobile phones to log into corporate accounts and wire millions of dollars. Citigroup can help verify 800,000 of its credit card customers by their voices. USAA, which provides insurance and banking services to members of the military and their families, identifies some of its customers through their facial contours. Biometrics have been tested by big banks for decades, but have only recently become accurate and cost effective to use in a big way. It has taken a great deal of trial and error. Before mobile phones became ubiquitous, there was an even bigger obstacle: To capture a finger image or scan an eyeball, a bank would have to pay to distribute the necessary technology to tens of millions of customers. A few banks tried, but their efforts were costly and short-lived.

(C) Wells Fargo allows every customer to use their voices to log into their account.

Cuts and bruises were the most common injuries, and the head and the face were the most affected areas of the body. Riding toys, specifically non-motorized scooters, were responsible for 45% of the toy-related deaths. The safety commission and US Customs and Border Protection say they want to keep dangerous toys out of kids' hands and create a safer marketplace for consumers. They work together to find and detain shipments of toys and other children's products that fail to meet federal safety standards. They also work with counterpart organizations abroad to ensure safety standards are being met. Toys are also recalled for defects that could cause choking or pose any risk of dangers or injuries to a child. Consumers can also contribute to children's safety. They can take safety precautions to avoid ending up in an emergency room. How? Be a good label reader and choose age-appropriate toys. Making sure the age is appropriate is really key. Use toys in the right environment. A ball in the living room is probably not the right environment, as opposed to a playroom. Watch out for hidden dangers such as balloons. Keep deflated balloons away from children younger than 8, and discard torn balloons. Beware of batteries. Battery charging should always be supervised by adults because chargers and adapters can burn. Small batteries are especially dangerous. They are the size of an M&M, so it will be very easy for children to confuse them with candies. Pay close attention to instructions when constructing a toy. If it is not properly constructed, often something unexpected occurs. Stay informed on toy recalls. Check your existing toys to see if they have been recalled.
